Allen Park – Downtown Block Parties @ Specific locations may vary Oct 15 @ 4:00 pm – 8:00 pm Downtown Allen Park is turning Thursdays into the best nights of the week. Beginning May 2026, the Block Parties will light up the 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month through October — a brand‑new event series packed with energy, creativity, and community spirit.

The Allen Park Farmer’s Market will be moving to a new location this year. It will be on the old
movie theater site at Philomene and Park Avenue, just a few blocks north of the current site.
Stroll through stalls of seasonal fruits and vegetables and talk with the farmers who picked the produce that very morning.
The DDA market brings the farm right to Allen Park and to your tables by providing a selection of fresh fruits and veggies and much much more.
